Well, what do you expect on a little-endian machine, when you are passing characters to od in big-endian order? > Can that be tweaked somehow? Yes - try "od --help" to see other display formats. For example, "od -t x1" prints hex bytes one at a time, with no endianness issues. Or try "ls - -hog | dd conv=swab status=noxfer | od -x", with that dd in the middle doing a byte-swap. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
